Yeah for windows it's a little more complex. I suspect you'd need to reinstall it to that drive again. I'd recommend LW 4.12 or 4.18 at this point. Lime Wire » Download Out-Of-Date Installers for LW 4.18
Once installed, you will need to direct the shared folder to that drive as it was before.

For 4.12 check either http://www.gnutellaforums.com/340213-post427.html .. see if it works. If not, try LimeWire - DOWNLOAD at OLD VERSION.COM Please let me know if the first link 4.12 installs ok.

i just bought limewire pro 5.1.2 and for some reason it will not work at all. every time i try to start limewire i get an error message that reads "Sorry, LimeWire ran into a problem while it was starting up. This is usually caused by a problem during installation, Try downloading and installing LimeWire again. If that doesn't fix it, visit Lime Wire » Official Website & Free Download, BitTorrent « and click on 'Support'. You can also send the bug to us so we can try and fix it."
I have done all of these steps but keep getting the same error message.
thanks for your help

I reloaded 4.12.6 from the OLDVERSION.com site, redirected my files to my auxillary drive where my library is stored. I'm back in business! Thanx. My old version was 4.12.11 which I think was an older version of PRO. I didn't see that listed anywhere. Which version of PRO would be the best to upgrade to with my current 4.12.6 ? Or maybe I don't have a choice. I'm not sure.

I'm having a similar problem, download lw5 after uninstalling lw4, everytime i try to connect, it goes through the sequence and goes away. how can i fix this situation. I've a;ready uninstalled firewall settings, but nothing seems to work.

Not sure what you mean. What sequence? If you mean that LW starts to load (ie muddling mint, scouring NYC for limes, squeezing limes) & then shuts down - try the advice here: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/331559-post2.html

If that's not your problem, could you explain a bit more?

Thanks, that's exactly what I mean, I'll try the link and see what happens....

Hello L.O.T.R.

I previously had 4.18. It worked fine for quite some some time. Then I started having problems when I would open the program. The windows would be see through on start up. The windows that I am referring to are the main Limewire window and the small ones asking me if I want to upgrade and such. If I click on them or drag over them they some times will appear. At the bottom of my screen on the task bar, limewire appears in a white box and says JAVA instead of limewire. Once I click on it to minimize the window and again to maximixe it, it will then go from a transparent window to a the normal Limewire screen. Even the Limewire "lime" icon in the bottom right corner of my screen is invisible. It's there, but you can not see it.

I decided to upgrade to the new 5.1.2. After I downloaded it, I ran the program. It will get all the way through the greyish black limewire setup screen which says squeezing limes and so on. Once it runs the program and show a predominately white screen with two choices to pick from, IT CLOSES! It does this every single time. The Lime icon on my taskbar is again invisible but it is there. Once the program suddenly closes, I can scroll over the invisible lime icon and it will also automatically go close. I have rebooted, re-downloaded (many times), deleted all old versions of Java and even reinstalled 4.18 for it to act the same way as before.

PLEASE HELP! I've lost a ton of time and miss my Limewire!
